Inland CommunicationsOak Brook, Ill. – Inland Green Capital LLC (“Inland Green Capital”), an environmental finance and investment company, announced the origination of nearly $1 million in commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (“C-PACE”) financing for environmental improvements for a multifamily conversion project in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
Formerly an industrial property that was home to Wisconsin-based Miles Kimball, a catalog business offering gifts and household items, the building will be converted to a multifamily complex featuring 28 apartment units with 43 parking spaces.
The C-PACE capital will help fund HVAC, LED lighting, roof, windows and water conservation improvements for the four-story complex located at 851 South Main Street. The improvements are expected to reduce the property’s annual electricity and water consumption by 325,947 kilowatt-hours and 643,713 gallons, respectively, when compared with a standard baseline building performance model. Total lifecycle savings are anticipated to reach over $1.4 million.
"We are thrilled to be a part of this project and add C-PACE within the borrower’s capital stack,” commented Mark Pikus, president of Inland Green Capital. “This conversion from industrial to multifamily is just one example of how C-PACE financing can assist commercial property owners in lowering their cost of capital, achieve their sustainability goals and save operating costs.”
This is Inland Green Capital’s sixth transaction in the State of Wisconsin.
